[DCCP]: Add (missing) option parsing to request_sock processing

Browse source 
This adds option-parsing code to processing of Acks in the listening state
on request_socks on the server, serving two purposes
 (i)  resolves a FIXME (removed);
 (ii) paves the way for feature-negotiation during connection-setup.

There is an intended subtlety here with regard to dccp_check_req:

 Parsing options happens only after testing whether the received packet is
 a retransmitted Request.  Otherwise, if the Request contained (a possibly
 large number of) feature-negotiation options, recomputing state would have to
 happen each time a retransmitted Request arrives, which opens the door to an
 easy DoS attack.  Since in a genuine retransmission the options should not be
 different from the original, reusing the already computed state seems better.

 The other point is - if there are timestamp options on the Request, they will
 not be answered; which means that in the presence of retransmission (likely
 due to loss and/or other problems), the use of Request/Response RTT sampling
 is suspended, so that startup problems here do not propagate.
